Five floating boarding houses, situated behind Mitford Hospital on Dhaka's Buriganga River, offer affordable accommodation for small-scale businessmen and salaried individuals. These former trawlers, now anchored, provide basic amenities like electricity, toilets, and water. While they once thrived, the pandemic and a relocation to Mitford Ghat have led to a decline in business. Despite these challenges, the owners remain determined to preserve this historic part of Dhaka, offering a glimpse into the city's past.
